I got this idea that might be useful to present let say to a power user of an application. Have you came across any examples that might show to an admin of a application when he logs in the application as an administrator to get a summary of what users are online and accessing what page? And maybe how many users have logged in the last few days? Or a user that has logged in most? Some user and applicatino usage and resource usage statistics?

Is there something like this?


I found few examples but they mainly talk about monitoring performance of the application from outside the application using some other tools.

I am thinking for monitoring from inside the application?

Is there something like that? I really appreciate your time and help.

Something similar to that would be like some of the forums have: They have a listing of what users are loggedin,how many are logged any,Whats the maimum logged at the same time and so on,

Sincerely

If you can dream it, you can probably do it! :)

Yes you can do things like this. How it's done, though, is up to you. I know DotNetNuke has a few user tracking features built in and there are modules you can buy to add more tracking. I'm not suggesting you use DNN, I'm just letting you know there's an easy (free) place to start looking at examples.

And i'm sure there are things you can buy to help aid in this project, but I don't know any off the top of my head.

DotNetNuke

www.dotnetnuke.com is open source and you can see what kind of things they track for their user accounts.
